Copying and Pasting CV

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, didn't know where is suitable.

I am applying for Blackstone, and on their website they ask you to paste your cover letter into a box. This removes formatting. I understand that you should have your address right aligned, and theirs left aligned at the top. How can I do this in the correct way as everything must be left aligned? Do I just put mine first and then theirs underneath?

Don't put their address. If it's via a plain text box then it's extraneous; they know where they're located.

nicedsalec452That's logical, so just my address left aligned then?
Yep. Simpler the better.
